Psalm 135

Psalm 135

¹Praise ye Jehovah.

Praise ye the name of Jehovah;

Praise him, O ye servants of Jehovah,

²Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah,

In the courts of the house of our God.

³Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good:

Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

⁴For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself,

And Israel for his own possession.

⁵For I know that Jehovah is great,

And that our Lord is above all gods.

⁶Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done,

In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;

⁷Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;

Who maketh lightnings for the rain;

Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;

⁸Who smote the first-born of Egypt,

Both of man and beast;

⁹Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt,

Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;

¹⁰Who smote many nations,

And slew mighty kings,

¹¹Sihon king of the Amorites,

And Og king of Bashan,

And all the kingdoms of Canaan,

¹²And gave their land for a heritage,

A heritage unto Israel his people.

¹³Thy name, O Jehovah, endureth for ever;

Thy memorial name, O Jehovah, throughout all generations.

¹⁴For Jehovah will judge his people,

And repent himself concerning his servants.

¹⁵The idols of the nations are silver and gold,

The work of men’s hands.

¹⁶They have mouths, but they speak not;

Eyes have they, but they see not;

¹⁷They have ears, but they hear not;

Neither is there any breath in their mouths.

¹⁸They that make them shall be like unto them;

Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

¹⁹O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah:

O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah:

²⁰O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah:

Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.

²¹Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion,

Who dwelleth at Jerusalem.

Praise ye Jehovah.
